These open directly on to a good sized private balcony, with uninterrupted views of the countryside and seawaters of the Ria Formosa, a nature reserve that is a haven for wildlife. In the evening you can watch the most glorious sunsets over the mountains. The apartment is only 8km from Junction 16 of the A22 motorway, 35km from Faro and within 10km of excellent golf courses.

Tourist resort towns with entertainment, bars, restaurants and casinos only a 10 - 40 minute drive away (depending which town you would like to visit).

Will ye no come back again !

TomandAvril Bonnyrigg
Review Submitted: June 17, 2008 Date of Stay: March 2008
This property is immaculate in every respect and is ultra modern with all the latest facilities including Air Conditioning and must not be missed ! Its ideal for that relaxing break ! The views from the balcony are superb.There are some excellent restaurants in Santa Luzia the closest being 150 yards away is very good value with well presented good food. The best restaurant is a french one called Vicente which is for the discerning diner or the last night of your holiday. There is also a local bar opposite Vicente which is basic but sometimes have a good local bad playing and the drinks are reasonably priced. Tavira is close by and can be visted easily by car there are many restaurants there and also some nice shops. Travel down the coast to Cabanas, Manta Rota they are also very nice places with nice beaches. For the golfer there is a great choice of courses in the area 'Monte Rei' a Jack Nicklaus designed course is the best course in the Algarve and a must for the serious player. There is also Quinta da Ria and Quinta da Cima which are very good courses. All in all we fell in love with the area! You can travel to Faro easily by car and train from Tavira. You are only 30mins by car from Vila Real de San Antonio on the Spanish Border. The apartment is an excellent base to tour around the Eastern Algarve and we would highly recommend this property for a lovely holiday. Yes we will come back again ! Tom and Avril

A little gem

Mary and Tom Wirral
Review Submitted: July 7, 2009 Date of Stay: June 2009
What a beautiful apartment and magical village Santa Luzia really is. The apartment is great for 2 people wanting to do their own thing. The kitchen has everything you would need if you were self catering. However, don't plan on cooking at night because you will miss out on the fabulous restaurants in the village. They will definately make your holiday in terms of quality and price. Smoked salmon starter for 1.5 euros at one restaurant and a huge bowl of the biggest mussels I have seen at Vincents for 3 euros. There are a couple of local shops as well if you want to buy the local bread, cheese, beer, wine etc - the essentials. The Isle de Tavaira is a pleasure to visit for a couple of euros either by water taxi or the small guage rail or even walk over the bridge. The beach is a mere 15km of sand with a few beach bars. In general the village caters maily for the Portugese but everyone is made welcome.

The Algarve is beautiful in the spring

Aideen M Ireland
Review Submitted: March 24, 2009 Date of Stay: March 2009
An immaculate and beautiful modern apartment with everything you would need. The balcony is a lovely place to sit with views over the countryside and the sea. A stunning beach is within walking distance. The village is a real fishing village that hasn't been ruined by tourism. The people are friendly and helpful. You don't need a car, it is possible to get everywhere by public transport. Tavira is a short bus ride away. This is a well preserved eighteenth century town with lovely squares and gardens, a real jewel in the Algarve.

santa luzia birding

john and margaret yorkshire
Review Submitted: September 26, 2008 Date of Stay: September 2008
just returned from a lovely holiday in santa luzia.sallys apartment is great,bright,modern and very relaxing.it also has one big plus-what a view.we both love birdwatching and at times it was difficult to tear ourselves away from the superb balcony.viewed from here the estuary is alive with waders of all kinds including egrets,white storks,ringed,grey and kentish plover.to the front are unobstructed views of fields,olive trees,orchards and distant farms which allows spectacular sunsets. here we saw lots of familar birds plus hoopoe,shrikes,cattle egrets,montegues harrier,blue throat,spotless starling,waxbill,sardnian and fan-tailed warblers.in all 50+ species. one evening 31 spoonbills flew onto the barrier island easily seen from our seats on the balcony. a walk through the old village to the saltpans was rewarded with lots of waders including black winged stilts.collared pratincole and spectacular flamingoes.there is easy access to some of the best birding sites in portugal from santa luzia. the nearby beaches are superb,reached by fast aqua-taxi from their jetty close to the apartment.nearby tavira must be the nicest town on the algarve.here it is very different from the coast west of faro. quieter,laid back,very portugese with friendly locals.a wonderful area. give it a try.
